HE GOT THERE, STALKING FOOLISH IM SO STRESSED
Hi guys, here's a little Drabble/Oneshot series of some stuff I wrote. Im sorry it's not the Cellbit BBH hunger games one Ive been working on.
So far we have some actually non toxic Bbh and Tubbo bonding and then some slightly toxic fitpac
DONT GET ME WRONG- I am a huge advocate on the Wild and Hyrule being bffs front BUT I think it would be so so SO funny if they hated each other at first.
The similarities between Wild and Hyrule are genuinely poetic, I mean botw is literally a spiritual successor to Zelda 1. Their friendship was written in the stars.
But their differences… I think in the beginning Hyrule would envy the shit out of Wild. Both of their eras are in severe decline but Wild’s is green. Everyone in the chain knows that Wild’s memory is lacking. They know that one day Wild woke up with no memories and answered the call to be a hero, just like that. Everyone thinks it’s highly admirable to choose to be a hero without even knowing what you’re saving, just being innately good. But Hyrule doesn’t think so. If he woke up and saw a world so beautiful… There isn’t even a choice in defending that.
He’s also jealous that Wild can just… fuck off if something gets too dangerous. When they’re in Wild’s era they learn that he can use his slate to teleport anywhere he wants as much as he wants. If Wild accidentally disturbs a Lynel he can literally disappear to a sunny beach, get a drink, and lay out. He even has a map that updates as he moves. If he got lost, even with his slate not working, Hyrule has no doubt Wild would just run into an apple tree, a clean spring, and venison. He can scan an object to tell whether or not it’s poison. It didn’t matter how young, sick, or tired Hyrule was, if he stumbled upon a Lynel it was either him or it. He had to learn the hard way what he could or couldn’t eat. If Hyrule got lost there was no way his maps could save him. His era was mostly one huge bruise of dry grass and dying trees. Food and landmarks were scarce.
Because of that, Wild gets to goof off. He’s impulsive. He’s loud. He’s everything that should’ve gotten him killed years ago.
What he doesn’t know is that Wild is also jealous of Hyrule. Hyrule is just so… competent with so little. Hyrule never needed the master sword. In fact, Hyrule still uses the same sword he’s had since he was 10. Hyrule doesn’t break things. Hyrule doesn’t need people to find him when he’s lost, he doesn’t need maps. Hyrule doesn’t complain when all they have to eat is hard tack and water.
Hyrule could find a needle in a haystack without even burning it down. He’s just… everything that Wild can’t be. The shrine of resurrection healed as much of Wild as it could but the brain is a complicated thing. He wonders if he was always so impulsive, if he used to miss social cues, and if his memory had always been awful. Flora said something about damage to his frontal lobe but unless he looks up the definition in his slate, Wild can’t remember what that means.
Wild feels so embarrassed having had to use so many tools in his quest. Everyone calls Legend the hoarder but Wild quietly knows that it’s really him. Just standing next to Hyrule makes Wild look bad. It’s like the guy glows.
So they both resent each other at first, Hyrule for what Wild has and Wild for what Hyrule has.
I think if they were both teens, 17??, they would take this out on each other by being relentlessly petty. I think aside from Wind, they would be the youngest in the chain. At least in this scenario. Wild holds his breath praying that Hyrule will fuck up at some point. Hyrule “accidentally” keeps sabotaging Wild’s attempts to sneak off. Whenever the other gets lectured they get a sick feeling of accomplishment.
The chain picks up on the fact those two don’t like each other. Most of them don’t get it, two teenage kids, the same age, both heroes with a love for adventure and sneaking off. Why wouldn’t they get along? Wild and Hyrule never do actually fight though, until they do.
It starts with little things, Hyrule being annoyed after being asked to patch Wild up. Wild under or over seasoning Hyrule’s dinner portion just to test how far he can push him. Just little things to push at each other’s buttons.
And then they finally do fight, maybe after months of it brewing. And GOODNESS if it’s not a glorious fight. It doesn’t matter who started it. Hyrule has a fist of Wild’s hair. Wild throws sand into Hyrule’s eyes. The chain doesn’t even know what to do by the time they finally get them split up.
Well, Time does. Time makes the two of them start doing EVERYTHING together. Patrols, skirmishes, chores. The only way they’d be closer is if they were tied together. They hate it.
But it’s because of this they get captured together after a portal splits up the chain. Maybe they’re lost, arguing when cultists, a sick combination of both Yiga and the Eyes of Ganon scoop them up.
I think that while the Eyes are hyper competent they’re not necessarily cruel. This is a means to an end for them, they believe the death of the hero will save their families. For that, the hero doesn’t need to suffer. Slitting his throat will do. The Yiga are cruel but not very competent. They want to string the hero up, humiliate him. Torture him if they can get their hands on him… These two forces combined make something both competent and cruel.
So Wild and Hyrule are united in their shared terror. Hyrule and Wild finally start talking, trying to collaborate when they realize the cult wants to toy with them both before ritualistically sacrificing them. Through this, they finally understand each other.
Hyrule learns how insecure Wild is and why. How Wild’s era failed him and pushed him into something when he literally didn’t even have the mind to do so. That Wild is struggling to cope in a world that he barely understands.
Wild learns that Hyrule never got to cope, that his entire life has been one big chase. That Hyrule also didn’t choose to be a hero but had to be. Hyrule never catches a break. Hyrule never had the chance to get to break something.
Through their impromptu sleepover and some light torture, they grow close in the span of 72 hours before they escape their captors hand in hand.
They reunite with the chain who are shocked to see them arms around each other’s shoulders like brothers. Laughing, and more concerningly bleeding, at new inside jokes.
From then on they become a dangerous force. Time almost wishes they didn’t get along so well bc the new trouble they’re getting into is much more stressful than the old isolated incidents. They learn each others anxieties and weaknesses and do their best to uplift each other. They’re besties 💕💕💕
Hehehe sorry for the long ramble but I think about these two a lot. I think it’s so cool how their games are related but they’re also kind of opposites in some ways? This is probably ooc but I had a lot of fun writing. Lmk any thoughts!!
okay I apologize to any Christians, I hope this isn’t offensive but I can’t stop thinking about it 😭
so you know how Christianity is semi-canon in the downfall timeline? Yeah- how would that work???
Christianity exists on Earth because of a long and complicated collision of history and pagan stories and then the death and resurrection of Jesus, a Jewish middle eastern man who was trying to defend his people against Roman oppressors. i know reasonably that Nintendo might’ve not expected that the Zelda series would take off so much so they probably put in some Christian iconology bc the Catholic aesthetic is kind of popular in Japan. It shows up a lot in anime too.
but now there’s a canon religion the series follows with a couple of goddess 😭
my only reasoning is that the Hyrule Christians believe that God is all powerful and that maybe Hylia, Din, Farore, Nayru are either angels or saints? More Catholic I guess
and maybe the hero of Time would be a Jesus figure?? His birth COULD be immaculate, we don’t know his parents. maybe Christianity comes from Calatia? Hylia I think only focuses on Hyrule??
in the Linked Universe I don’t personally head canon Hyrule or Legend to be catholic BUT. I think it would be really funny if they were
Legend calling Hylia a false prophet 😭
Hyrule holding up his cross like: “I prayed to God and now I can see moas”
If Time is downfall Jesus I think they would both probably have a spiritual crisis depending on how devout they both are 😭
also Legend just REALLY gives me Catholic guilt vibes.
When I was a kid my grandmother would have me recite the “Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep” prayer which terrified me as a kid 😮💨 I feel like Hyrule would recite it every night and it would kind of just unsettle the chain.
PLEASE. Please tell me if anybody has thought the same or has thoughts on how it would work. This has been plaguing my mind
I’m sorry Christians
Idk what gets me so much, maybe the fact that until adulthood I’ve lived in warm weather climates, but fics about huddling for warmth and hypothermia scares and fluffy ones too where they just stay indoors in front of a fire are so appealing to me
I headcanon, or not even more like just maladaptive daydream/think would be cute, for Team Soulfire is that they have a nice little cabin headquarter or warm little base that they stay in when they’re too exhausted to grind for materials or fight other people anymore. Or when the timer runs out and there’s no point left in doing missions.
I like to think that they all have matching fluffy coats and have to share a bed, not in a sexual trope way but in a sleepover way. They came from a cold spawn. They make soup together and cuddle for warmth.
So. The hero’s clothes, like the traditional green tunic and cap, is often like a uniform worn by the hero I think best seen in Sky, Twilight, and Wind’s games. It’s often referred back to what the first hero wore in reflection of him.
Time, however, wears the tunic and hat bc it’s custom for the Kokiri. Everyone wears that outfit in the forest.
When it gets down to Legend, there’s no mention in his games of why he would wear something like that so, here’s where my headcanoning comes in. Legend always heard about the fallen hero and he feels a great deal of empathy and grief for him. When he starts his first quest, being so close in age to the fallen hero, he understands him even more. So to honor him, he decided to dress as he did. To take him with him so that when he slays Ganon it’s as if the fallen hero is with him taking his revenge.
Hyrule just really looked up to the Hero of Legend and wanted to cosplay him when he was a little kid. He refuses to admit to the chain this until Dawn or Aurora dig it out of him over a dinner.
LOL thank you this is the answer I was looking for! They miscommunicate with an emo/goth girl kinda swag…
I can’t explain it but vidow is so Yuri coded to me
Maybe it’s bc Shadow reminds me of Homura
Hello! I’ve been talking and meeting more and more people lately so I think a proper introduction is due.
My name is Liv. I’ve semi recently graduated with a bachelor’s in Psych and a lot of stupid pre-med course work which I don’t think I’m going to use. 😮💨 iykyk. I’ve been spending my time lately traveling, job hunting, trying to reconnect with my hobbies, and posting on here. 😻
I love video games, namely Zelda and Minecraft. Lately I’ve really been enjoying the Linked Universe fandom but I’m also a huge nerd for anime and manga. My all time favorite anime is Tsuritama and I’m currently reading Witch Hat Atelier.
I’ve been trying to get back into touch with drawing and creative writing, two arts that I feel like I fell out of touch with while I was studying for the past 4-5ish years. Maybe I’ll post some of my things but my confidence in how good they look so maybe later 😖
My most genuine hobby is… yapping. I love love love talking with the lovely people of this website about anything and everything. If you ever want a conversation, I’m your guy!
And that’s me! I have loved getting to know so many of you. I hope this opens up a bit more about me!
Waiting for someone to make a “My Mom” by Kimya Dawson edit
Badboyhalo didn't particularly know who was in his bed at the moment, but he also didn't really care.
Judging by the soft fingers combing through long hair, and a cold hand on the bare sliver of skin at his waist; Forever. But by the nose at his nape; Etoiles?
Bad would just have to roll over, he guessed. He was cold anyway.
Letting out a deep, deep breath he'd been holding since the hand starting stroking through Bad's long midnight hair, he heaved himself over, ancient bones creaking with the effort.
The demon opened his eyes to soft morning light. Sun shone through barely closed blinds, not too brightly to hurt his eyes, but enough to make him groan.
Yup. Forever. Etoiles hated the morning light just as much as he did, while Forever took any excuse he could to crack open the windows and stare INTO the SUN.
Blinking sleep out of his eyes, Bad tried to register his surroundings.
Headache, first of all. Very familiar. Eventual hangover most likely.
Foul taste in his mouth.
Gentle digits raking through his hair, massaging his scalp.
Stomach gurgling uncomfortably.
The smell of old booze and weed - wait, stomach gurgling?
Badboyhalo jerked up, stumbling from the bed and gripping his cane by the bedside table tightly. Hand over his mouth, blankets dragging until they're caught by Forever's weight, the nether demon bumbled into the bathroom.
Cold tile against his soles, he bent over the toilet, and-
I think you can guess what happened then.
Bad wiped his mouth, whimpering at tightness of his throat and gross taste left over. He quickly filled the glass on his counter with cold tap water.
Feet padded into the bathroom next to him. Hand on his nape and another on the cup, Forever helped him drink the rest of the water.
A clumsy, delicate kiss aimed at his cheekbone missed. Landing on his jaw instead. "Bom dia," Forever murmured, husky voice grating pleasantly on Bad's ears.
Cute.
Badboyhalo responded tiredly, "bom dia."
"Slept well?"
"As well as you can, considering I was blackout drunk and you kept kicking me in your sleep."
Forever snorted.
"I don't sleep securely when I had drunk alcohol."
'I can tell' thought Bad. But that wasn't something he thought he should share.
Forever's face is all too pretty relaxed like this anyway, he didn't particularly want it to go away.
AHHHHH
My first writing.. and it's a ship I don't like that much..
Excuse any mischaracterization and grammar issues please 😭
I’m finally playing Skyward Sword and Sky is genuinely the ADHD reputation that I never knew I needed
Like when he’s getting bullied by his peers for “having his head in the clouds”. LEAVE HIM ALONEEEE 😭 I heard that phrase so much growing up omg
Like I swear every other dialogue is about how he doesn’t focus and does his own thing like. Like. That’s mi gente.
BUT HIS DIALOGUE OPTIONS ARE WHAT KEEP GETTING ME. Every set of dialogue for Sky is
A). Huh??? The I wasn’t paying attention answer
B). Kind answer. Correct answer. I was paying attention answer :) I’m such a good boy
And then
C). Intrusive/Impulsive thoughts trying to escape the cage. Like what’s the most fucked up thing I can say right now? Let’s try and hold back but omg are they so funny.
Or at least that’s my headcanon that Sky is constantly fighting back a barrage of impulsive and intrusive thoughts at all times. People should be nicer when he asks them to repeat the question because he’s focusing on not insulting your bangs, your outfit, and your momma.
I have a new appreciation for Sky. Sparkle on you little hot mess.
